“We are borne with a red string tied to our left-hand pinkie that ties us to our destiny” — Chinese legend
The Fil Rouge project was born in 2015 and it rises from the intense understanding between two women, the singer and the pianist, who translate into words and music their melancholic mood, at the same time full of energy and dynamic. The incisiveness of the trumpet, the regular rhythms of the drums and the intensity of the double bass color and fill the sound. The first album "L'inconnue", the unknown in every one of us, published in spring 2016, received a good feedback in italian press (La Repubblica, La Nazione, corriere Fiorentino).
It is difficult to define our musical genre, however, if jazz comprises research and improvisation, with many contaminations, our project can be put into a jazz context.Our music touches the most diverse sounds, timbres and colors: Mediterranean melodies with Arabic and Maghreb echoes. Latin rhythms of bossanova and tango permeated with underground influences tied to funk and hip-hop not least blues and swing. Our music moves across different harmony. Alternating tonal and modal composition. Thus creating never taken for granted atmospheres.
The songs are predominately written in French, the language of the soul of the singer. They speak about the Alsatian Countryside, about people met during a one-year journey; they speak about complicated lives and friendships developed in a Winter-time Strasbourg, a city radiated by a light, white like snow. The songs speak about painful relationships, life beyond illness and oblivion. They speak about a father came to known in senile age with all his fragilities and regained wisdom. They speak about a mother, small and full of life that runs, runs every moment of the day, who finds peacefulness in long walks through the countryside, to look for herbs to cook with. Not least, foggy atmospheres along the Senna, evoked by Jean Gabin’s film o by Maupassant short stories.
“The album L’Inconnue is an elegant eulogy of musical and poetic life simplicity:
it draws pieces of life enlightened by memories, affections and love silences.”
Fulvio Paloscia, LA REPUBBLICA
"Amazing urban world music that gravitates toward soundtracks sophisticated film.
A tribute to French music, to chameleonic sensibility of Italian jazz, to music experiments of groups like Les Negresses Vertes and singers like Zaz.”
Giovanni Ballerini, LA NAZIONE
